Is this a test/homework question? Where have you all looked?

It is on a code prep packet. I have been searching all through chapter 2.

Try Art 250.52(B)(1).
250.52 has to to with Grounding electrodes. Supplemental electrode is needed (augment). Lastly, bonding is different (info note referencing 250.104(B) ). And if I'm wrong, someone will correct me.
Btw, read read 250.52 until you get familiar with it.

No mention of High Impedance neutral system though.

Go to the index in the back & look up all the references to "High-impedance grounded neutral systems". All the references are in Art 250.
